We have an excellent experience with QWIKMap program
developed and distributed by ESL Environmental Sciences Ltd.,
P.O.Box 2219, 2045 Mills Road, Sidney, B.C., V8L 3S8

It cost around $900 and runs on IBM PC, preferably 386 (co-processor recommend
ed).
Data are entered in the form of a dBase III+, IV, FoxPro etc.
file. Each dot (or any other chosen or created symbol) on the
map represents one record. You can access the data base from the
map and check a record for each dot, etc., etc. Very user-friendly and ergonom
ic program. Good reason for switching from
MacIntosh to IBM.
